The Ortery 3D PhotoBench 260 is a software-controlled photography studio for eCommerce product photography. It features a 26.5" transparent rotational platform with a 33 lb weight capacity, and allows you to take up to 23 x 23" top shots, 23 x 23 x 23" side shots, and 16 x 16 x 22" 360&deg shots, with daylight LED studio lighting coming from the bottom, back, and four corners. The lighting system is dimmable and creates a white background when dialed all the way in one direction, so you can shoot your images on pure white or transparent backgrounds. The included control software (Mac/Win) will allow you to see real-time previews, make adjustments such as pre-cropping, remotely control compatible Canon and Nikon cameras via USB connection, and perform batch image processing, editing, and saving. (Nikon cameras are only supported when you use the software on a Windows computer.) You can even go a step further and incorporate optional 3rd-party remote desktop access software, such as Splashtop, to mimic the UI of the desktop on a tablet so you can get up close to the PhotoBench when you do all this.

The workflow is simple -- just place your product inside, connect your camera via USB cable, and then use the software to compose and take pictures, and you quickly get web- and print-ready product shots in RAW, JPG, TIFF, or PNG format, as well as 360&deg product views in HTML5, Flash, or GIF. You can connect up to three Canon cameras via USB cables and achieve a fully-automated capture process. (The software supports only one Nikon camera at a time.) Multiple camera capture can only be done on Windows computers.

Also included is the Ortery TruView stitching software (Windows-only), which lets you turn sequences of JPG images into interactive 360° product views with image tags, hyperlinks, and audio. Customers will be able to drag the 360&deg animation in all directions with a mouse and zoom deep into it from any angle.

AwesomeI use this daily, although I don't own it...I work for Disney photographing their merchandise for their app, and I love using it, you have total control of the lighting and how you want your product to come out. Disney also have the much bigger one for shooting bigger products and clothing. Both are definitely worth it if your have your own product line or large base clients.
